Abstract


Use of the Famacha© method as an aid in the control of worms in sheep
Abstract. Considering the daily challenges faced in sheep production today in Brazil, gastrointestinal parasites have significant impacts on production. Given this situation, it is extremely important to control these parasites for success in the breeding system. The FAMACHA© Method is an alternative for the control of parasites that affect sheep. This method is widely used considering its cost and benefit. But for its results to be highly effective, it can be accompanied by other laboratory techniques such as counting eggs per gram of feces, growing larvae (coproculture) and clinical examination performed on the animal.
